2. An investigation on Mohammad Bahmanbeigi's Stories Based on the Critical Theory of New Historicism

The abstract of this study is an investigation and critique on two of his books titled "My Bukhara, My Tribe" and "What If Ghareghaj Never Existed" as well as Bahmanbeigi's narrative-styled memoirs based on the critical theory of New Historicism which is a new literary criticism approach introduced in 1970's and 1980's. By eliminating the border between history and literature through this approach, a critical criterion is proposed based on which the connections between a text and its historical background can be studied. Based on this methodology, the life of the author, his various tendencies, and his social, political, and cultural activities are initially investigated. Afterwards, the reflection of historical, political, and cultural situation of his lifetime in his works are analyzed and various discourses as well as the conflicts in his stories are explained through providing examples of those two books of Bahmanbeigi. The study is carried out with a descriptive-analytical method and by using library sources. The results indicate that the stories are the reflections of political, social, and cultural conditions of Reza Shah Pahlavi and Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi eras. Prior to the administrative discourses of education, disarmament, and mandatory settlements of nomads, the nomadic societies identified themselves with notions such as strong fascination with guns and horse-back riding, migration, and farming lifestyle. However, by the emergence of new administrative discourses, these notions shifted. Initially, there was a contrast between Pahlavi's centralization discourse and tribal decentralization discourse. However, by spreading the discourse of education and literacy, Bahmanbeigi managed to solidify the discourse of the governing system in nomadic societies.
